Is it necessary to bribe the safety officer with cigarettes for Subject 2?

It is unnecessary because the test is now mostly electronic. You can familiarize yourself with the test environment by paying for a few practice sessions before the exam. Here are some precautions for the Subject 2 test: Fasten your seat belt: You must fasten your seat belt immediately after getting into the car. Remember not to buckle it incorrectly or to the passenger seat, as the system will directly judge the test as a failure. Do not unfasten the seat belt at will during the entire test. Adjust the seat and other settings: After getting into the car, adjust the seat, adjust the rearview mirror, fasten the seat belt, turn on the left turn signal, shift into first gear, and release the handbrake. These six steps are indispensable. No stopping during the test: There is no time limit for reversing into the garage, but it is important to note that you cannot stop during the reversing process. If the wheels remain stationary for 3 seconds, the system will judge it as stopping midway. Therefore, controlling the speed is crucial. The time limit for starting on a slope is 30 seconds: The time limit for starting on a slope is 30 seconds, and the system will give a voice prompt every 10 seconds. Exceeding 30 seconds will directly result in a failure.
As an observer with years of experience in the driver's license examination industry, I've witnessed many similar situations. Offering cigarettes is completely unnecessary and can easily cause trouble. The second subject test is primarily monitored electronically, with the safety officer sitting nearby watching the surveillance screen, making it nearly impossible to help you cheat. Last year, a student from our driving school was caught on camera secretly slipping a red envelope, resulting in immediate disqualification from the exam and a six-month ban. I've seen too many cases where people lose big for small gains. Instead of resorting to such tricks, it's better to practice parking maneuvers a few more times, memorize the turning points for right-angle turns, and most importantly, keep a calm mindset. If you're really nervous, chewing a piece of gum before the exam is much more effective than offering cigarettes.
When I was getting my driver's license, I also thought about whether to bribe someone, but later found it completely unnecessary. The safety officers are different from regular examiners—they mainly deal with emergency safety situations. The machine automatically deducts points for test operation violations, so they can't intervene anyway. A friend of mine recently took the test, and a candidate forcibly gave cigarettes, resulting in the safety officer reporting it as a violation to the police. For Subject 2, the most crucial things are adjusting the rearview mirror angles correctly, remembering the semi-clutch feeling when starting on a slope, and mastering the key points of each test item. Passing with your own skills is more reliable than anything else.
